The given equation is expressed as

5 + 2k = 25 - k

We would solve for k. The first step is to add k to both sides of the equation. it becomes

5 + 2k + k = 25 - k + k

5 + 3k = 25

Subtracting 5 from both sides of the equation, it becomes

5 - 5 + 3k = 25 - 5

3k = 20

k = 20/3

The value of k that satisfies the equation is 20/3
